Trauma and PTSD
Julie Willsie
Registered Psychotherapist, BSc, MACP; Registered Psychotherapist
I have worked for over 25 years with clients injured in life-altering motor vehicle accidents. These types of life altering events change our family dynamics, ability to maintain work, increase financial stress and reduce our abilities to function in society. Support focused on your specific challenges, goals and interests is important as everyone is so very different in their needs and abilities to cope and heal.

Gabrielle Ferguson
Registered Psychotherapist, BA, GC-C, RP-qualifying
My main area of trauma specialization is religious trauma.
Religious trauma can only be appreciated once you see that a person's entire sense of self and connection with the world around them is impacted by one's belief system. So when that belief system is the very thing that harmed up, it can be devastating on so many levels.

For many of us, our stream of life is interrupted by events that are so stressful and scary that they create lasting change. This can be a single incident such as an assault or accident. Or, it could be recurring incidents that take place in the course of our work. It could also be trauma in our earliest years from our caregivers or in our first relationships. If you feel that something from your past is impacting your current life, trauma focused therapy may be a good fit for you.

Melanie Wuytenburg
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, RSW
Providing trauma therapy is a deeply compassionate and client-centered process that prioritizes safety, trust, and empowerment. I approach trauma therapy with sensitivity and understanding, recognizing the profound impact that traumatic experiences can have on an individual's mental, emotional, and physical well-being. My goal is to create a supportive and non-judgmental space where clients feel validated and heard as they explore their trauma and work towards healing. Through evidence-based interventions, I help clients process and integrate their traumatic experiences in a way that promotes resilience and growth. I collaborate closely with clients to develop personalized treatment plans that honor their unique strengths, needs, and cultural backgrounds, empowering them to reclaim their sense of safety, agency, and vitality.

Patricia Berendsen & Associates Trauma Healing Centre of London Counselling and Psychotherapy Services
Marriage and Family Therapist
“Trauma is a part of life, however it doesn’t have to be a life sentence,” says trauma expert, Peter Levine. Trauma is often misunderstood to be solely about sexual abuse/assault. However, whenever we experience being overwhelmed without supportive people to help us, we have the potential of being traumatized. Ordinary life events such as a dental procedure, experiencing a fall, undergoing surgery, or even losing a tooth can be traumatizing. Counselling helps to renegotiate and resolve trauma bringing increased joy and vitality into daily life.
